nuArchitect Bundle released

Hi together,

now it's finally done. The nuArchitect Bundle is ready.

At first a big thank you to Markus from 3dworks for doing some MAC tests in the early time of nuArchitect Bundle. Because of a test via mail is not the fastest option, I have looked for a MAC. And I found a 2nd Hand one at low cost. So I was able to do the final tests for MAC's.

I decided to release this bundle as Donationware. This means, you can use the software for free, but if you enjoy it, please donate via PayPal to [email protected]. This will enhance the chance for updates and new scripts.

The bundle is packed in 3 zip files. In the file "nuArBunHelp.zip" you will find a file called "Install.html". Open this file in your browser and follow the instructions to install the bundle.

Because of upload Problems, the Images for the helpsystem are splitted in 4 files. You have to copy the files from the splitted files into the "img" Folder of your "Help" Folder. the files "nuArBunHelpImg1", "nuArBunHelpImg2", "nuArBunHelpImg3" and "nuArBunHelpImg4" should be handled as if they where in "nuArBunHelp".
I hope this does not lead to complications.

nuArchitect Bundle is a script bündle to give you the Tools to create the following things with only some clicks:

nuArches.ls to create arches and bows gothic and romans as well as normal door arches,
nuCathCei.ls is to create cathedral like ceilings and hallways,
nuCirclePlan.ls is to create circle brick-walls,
nuColumns.ls is to create gothic and roman like columns fluted ones and unfluted ones with fluting in or out,
nuDoors.ls is to create doors with peepholes and lattice, handle and hinges, with bows like gothic and roman,
nuFences.ls is to create fences,
nuFloors.ls is to create floors, ordered and random structured,
nuGates.ls is to create gates scaled, dual and triple ones,
nuGothXPass.ls is to create gothic x-passes (I don't know if it will be named so in english), in german we say 3-Pass for example,
nuGroundPlan.ls is to create brick walls from a given ground plan,
nuOrnaments.ls is to create ornaments like from a blacksmith to build a fence,
nuPedestals.ls is to create pedestals out of a form and scale description,
nuRoofGable.ls ist to create roof gables made of single bricks,
nuRopePath.ls is to create ropes or chains that follow a curved path,
nuRopes.ls is to create hanging ropes and chains,
nuRota.ls is to create rotational structures like Roman or greek vases,
nuSockets.ls is to create sockets with text on the base (like for a Memorial),
nuWalls.ls is to create walls made of bricks,
nuWinsGoth.ls is to create gothic and roman windows,
nuWinsStd.ls is to create Standard windows (mostly modern ones),
nuUV2TGA.ls is to save a UV-Map as TGA file.

If you only want to look at examples, than there are the files nuArBunHelp.zip as well as nuArBunHelpImg1-4.zip, they include tons of example pics as well as a Brief description to each script. As you can see, there are tons of files, so pleas accept that there are not a ton pictures here as well. I hope this description is enough to you.

lot's of them are great to create building details - mostly in a historic scene context. but there are universal tools as well among them which could be used for modern buildings. best is to download them and then the help system will guide you through them ;-)

Markus from 3dworks informed me over an issue that can happen, especially on MAC. If you used the old version, than you should go in any of the geometry creating scripts, Switch to the preferences tab and look at the path. If the last letter of the path says "\" on PC or "/" on MAC, than remove the last letter and klick "Store". If you don't do so, the helpsystem on MAC will not work correct. On PC this is no problem, it seems like PC is in this Thing more tollerant.
